Laravel: How to Get Current Route Name? (v5 ... v7)

In Laravel v4 I was able to get the current route name using...

Route::currentRouteName()

How can I do it in Laravel v5 and Laravel v6?

Solution

  • Try this 

    Route::getCurrentRoute()->getPath();

    or

    \Request::route()->getName()

    from v5.1

    use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
$currentPath= Route::getFacadeRoot()->current()->uri();

    Laravel v5.2

    Route::currentRouteName(); //use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

    Or if you need the action name

    Route::getCurrentRoute()->getActionName();

    Retrieving The Request URI

    The path method returns the request's URI. So, if the incoming request is targeted at http://example.com/foo/bar, the path method will return foo/bar:

    $uri = $request->path();

    The is method allows you to verify that the incoming request URI matches a given pattern. You may use the * character as a wildcard when utilizing this method:

    if ($request->is('admin/*')) {
    //
}

    To get the full URL, not just the path info, you may use the url method on the request instance:

    $url = $request->url();

    Laravel v5.3 ... v5.8

    $route = Route::current();

$name = Route::currentRouteName();

$action = Route::currentRouteAction();

    Laravel v6.x...7.x

    $route = Route::current();

$name = Route::currentRouteName();

$action = Route::currentRouteAction();

    There is an option to use request to get route

    $request->route()->getName();
